Softr is a no-code apps platform. If you want WP User Frontend submission synced to Softr, you could pay for a cloud automation service. Or you could do it directly from WordPress. This is the direct route.

Why not just use Zapier?

For connecting WP User Frontend to no-code apps, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.

What you will need

  • A WordPress site with WP User Frontend installed and configured.
  • A Softr account.
  • The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).

Connect Softr to AFI

  1. Log in to your Softr account.
  2. Copy your API Key and Domain.
  3. In WordPress, go to AFI → Settings → Softr.
  4. Enter the credentials and click Save.

Setting up the integration

1. Create a new integration

Go to AFI → Add New. Name it WP User Frontend to Softr.

2. Pick your trigger

Select WP User Frontend as the form provider. AFI fires when a post is submitted or a form is completed, giving you access to author name, email, post title, post content, and custom field values.

3. Select Softr as the destination

Choose Softr from the platform dropdown and pick Add User. This creates a user in Softr.

4. Map fields

Match each Softr field on the left to the corresponding WP User Frontend field on the right. Common mappings include author name, email, post title, post content, and custom field values. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.

5. Add conditions if needed

Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.

6. Save and test

Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in WP User Frontend. Check Softr to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.

Free vs Pro

The free version maps email and name to Softr with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
